Marketing staffing alternative
A Better Alternative to Marketing Staffing Agencies
Marketing staffing agencies send generalists who don't know your tools or funnel. We provide dedicated, tool-verified LATAM marketing specialists — SEO, paid media, HubSpot, lifecycle, and RevOps — with 50–70% cost savings.
The marketing talent gap
Marketing analyst unemployment sits at 3.8% — well below the national average. Companies need dedicated operators for their tools and channels, not generalists from a staffing pool.

The Limitations of Marketing Staffing Agencies
Marketing staffing agencies serve a purpose — but for companies that need specialists who understand their tool stack, funnel mechanics, and attribution model, the traditional model creates more friction than it solves.
Generalist talent pools
Marketing staffing agencies draw from broad databases. The "SEO specialist" they send may have surface-level experience across too many disciplines.
No tool-stack validation
Most agencies verify resumes, not platform proficiency. They don't test whether a candidate can actually build HubSpot workflows or Klaviyo automations.
Rotating contractors
Different marketers for different campaigns. Every rotation resets institutional knowledge of your funnel, attribution model, and brand voice.
Markup-heavy pricing
Agencies layer 30–50% markup on top of the specialist's rate. You're paying for their overhead, not your marketing output.
No performance continuity
Staffing agencies place people and move on. They don't track whether the specialist is actually moving your pipeline metrics.
Slow placement cycles
Traditional agencies average 18+ days to place. In marketing, that's two sprint cycles of lost velocity.
The Alternative: Dedicated LATAM Marketing Specialists
Instead of generalists from a staffing pool, work with a dedicated marketing specialist who knows your tools, channels, and metrics — exclusively.
Dedicated specialists
The same marketer works exclusively on your channels. They learn your funnel, tools, attribution model, and KPIs — and compound results over time.
Tool-stack verified
Our 5-stage vetting includes platform-specific assessments. A HubSpot specialist we present has passed a workflow automation exercise, not just listed the tool on a resume.
50–70% cost savings
Dedicated LATAM marketers at $2,500–$5,000/mo vs. $7,000–$10,000+/mo for US equivalents. No staffing agency markup.
Free replacement guarantee
If a specialist isn't the right fit, we replace them at no cost. Anytime for monthly engagements.
US timezone overlap
0–3 hour timezone difference. Real-time collaboration during your business hours — critical for campaign launches and reporting cadences.
Scale from one to a full team
Start with a single dedicated specialist. Add SEO, paid media, lifecycle, and analytics as you grow — all month-to-month.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is LatAm Scalers a marketing staffing agency?
No. We are a Dedicated Talent Partner — not a staffing agency, employer of record, or freelance marketplace. Instead of sending rotating contractors from a broad pool, we provide pre-vetted LATAM marketing specialists who embed into your team on a dedicated, month-to-month basis.
What marketing specializations do you cover?
SEO, paid media (Google Ads, Meta Ads), HubSpot/MarOps, RevOps, content marketing, email/SMS lifecycle (Klaviyo, Mailchimp), analytics (GA4, Looker), social media management, and growth marketing. Each specialization has its own vetting track with platform-specific assessments.
How do you verify tool-stack proficiency?
Our vetting includes timed, platform-specific exercises — not just resume checks. A HubSpot specialist completes a workflow automation task. A paid media specialist demonstrates campaign structure and optimization methodology. A Klaviyo specialist builds a segmented flow.
Can I start with one marketer and scale to a team?
Yes — that's the most common pattern. Most clients start with one dedicated specialist (often MarOps/RevOps or SEO) and add complementary roles as pipeline demands grow. All engagements are month-to-month, so you scale at your own pace.
How does pricing compare to a traditional marketing staffing agency?
Traditional US marketing staffing agencies typically charge $50–$75+/hour. Our dedicated marketing specialists start at approximately $2,500/month for full-time, which translates to roughly $15–16/hour — a 50–70% reduction with no agency markup.
